The Championship quite possibly

Matt Donohue is referee. Took charge of us 3 times in promotion season 2 years ago - 1 win (Leeds away on final day), 1 draw (Middlesbrough home) and 1 loss (Bristol City away). He's done Pompey 5 times in last 7 seasons and they haven't won any of them.

One thing that's certainly not a Portsmyth is their fans shotung "scummer" and jeering at the minute's silence for Ted Bates back in 2003. Cunts. Skip to 4 minutes on this and then watch the rest as a nice warm up for Sunday.

Don't forget them owing money to charities like St John Ambulance. Sorry for your passing. Here's hoping we do it for your dad.

Worth adding in Jelert who has played in one of the fiercest of them all for Galatasaray v Fenerbahce and several times for Copenhagen v Brondby.

Yep. I think Jander will eventually replace Downes but Still won't want to overload on the new lads for this one and a strong core of THB/Stephens/Downes/Charles with a lot of Championship know-how is required. Fraser is almost a definite to start too in my view for his experience and I can see it being on the right given his defensive work to help Mads nullify Murphy who is their biggest threat. I know people don't want us to think like that but the reality is that there has to be a balance and we can't go all guns blazing. A shift to 4-2-3-1 matches them up and is a positive, attacking change with a lot of strength on the bench as insurance if required or to see the game out/kill it off.

Genuinely never heard of the bloke.

He's sat in the McDonalds in Shirley waiting for the EFL to confim the move. Had a strawberry milkshake and a Big Tasty with bacon.

Most fouled player per game in the Bundesliga last season. So hopefully plenty drawn around the edge of the box for him and Manning to stand over and stick past the keeper!

No idea, just telling people to relax.

Relax…

Them down the road bringing in Conor Chaplin back on loan. Very good signing.

Paris is a shithole. That's the difference maker signing for me if (when) it's finalised. Still has the players at his disposal to deliver promotion so no excuses now to not achieve it.

A shame as he looks a brilliant player but will allow Fraser to play in his best position and have Robinson as his understudy so not all bad

Jander played in both of Nuerenberg's derbies v Furth last season. Won both games, 4-0 and 3-0. Got booked and 2 assists in the last one.

Will get the complimentary bit out the way. Mousinho is a great coach; Shaunessy and Poole have a decent partnership at CB and Murphy, Segecic and Bishop are good players for the level. Other than that: Cunts, especailly that stinky parasite with the bell. Going to take a while longer for us to get fully up to speed with all the comings and goings so we just have to find a way to win this. Go 4-2-3-1 to match them up and back our superior quality. ----------------------------------McCarthy--------------------------- ----Mads------------Stephens--------------THB---------Manning---- -------------------------Charles-----Jander/Downes---------------------------- ---Fellows-----------------------Azaz--------------------Fraser---- ---------------------------------Archer----------------------------- Will about 5 yellows each (Stephens, THB and Downes for us and Swift for them nailed on) so good luck to whoever is refereeing it. Going 1-1 - think they'll be street smart enough sadly to get something from it.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Forest looking to loan out Jota Silva. Might be a good alternative out wide if we can’t get Scienza.

Fan dab Edozie 🇧🇪

Louza being out suspended for them is a boost. Massive player in their midfield. They’ve tended to start games well but fade which is the opposite to us. Can’t see us keeping a clean sheet but hopefully we’ll have more firepower than them to edge it. 2-1 Saints.

Scienza v Chelsea in the Conference League last season: Fouled 7 times 4 shots, 3 on target 3 key passes (pass leading to shot) 3 big chances created 9/13 ground duels won — On the opening day v Wolfsburg: Fouled 5 times 3 shots, 1 goal 17/20 passes completed 7/11 ground duels won

Worth remembering though that we've gone behind in every game and at home in two of them which will have an influence on the amount of shots we've had (I think it was 27 v Wrexham). Against Ipswich, we struggled to create much at all really.

Agent: Jorge Mendes. Say no more.

Well he averaged 3.4 per game last season which was more than any other player in Bundesliga 2.
